MISSION STATEMENT
It is the mission of the Swansboro Police Department to serve all people
within the Town's jurisdiction with respect, fairness, and compassion.
We are committed to the protection of life and property, the
preservation of peace, order and safety, and the vigorous
enforcement of local, state, and federal laws. We are
committed to serving our community to enhance the quality of life
and to nurture public trust by holding ourselves to the highest
standards of performance and ethics. Our officers are
determined to serve as a deterrent to crime, develop relationships
with community groups, residential and business organizations, and
to promote an environment receptive to tourism, visitors and
residents.
HOW CAN YOU BE OF ASSISTANCE?
The Swansboro Police Department cannot
function effectively without the assistance of concerned,
responsible residents. We are depending on YOU to call and
tell us whenever you see suspicious persons or activity. Call
the police immediately about all suspicious activity. Don't
worry about "bothering" the police. It's part of our job to
investigate suspicious matters. Do not worry about feeling
embarrassed if your suspicions are wrong; think instead about what
could happen if your suspicions are right and you don't call.
Your call could stop a criminal act, prevent an injury, or possibly
even save a life.
